I don’t know about you…but I’m a watch girl. The bigger {and the more unique} the better. Throw in a little pop of color and I’m a happy camper. When Jord Wood Watches asked me to partner with them to promote some of their styles for fall my answer was an obvious yes!
If I could wrap myself up in a blanket and go out in public I probably would. Mainly because I’m usually freezing at some point of the day, and it’s also turned into sort of a comfort thing. So this season I am really digging the idea of wearing a poncho. To me they are the fashionably acceptable way to walk around in a blanket all day…oh and they are really cute too 🙂
This summer I’ve kept things easy on myself when it comes to the wardrobe department. On a non-working day you can find me in a pair of cut-offs, a crop top, and a poncho just in case I get chilly {which always happens at some point}.
Like many people this time of the year, I’m getting ready to leave for a much needed vacay. Thank goodness I have the help of some fab interns to keep things moving along while I literally run around like a mad woman preparing for my trip. Please help me welcome back Alex!
For me, Fourth of July is my favorite holiday of the year. The combination of sun (fingers crossed Indiana actually has some for a change), fireworks, cookouts, country music, and friends are all what contributes to the perfect day.
While I find the day to be full of excitement, I cringe seeing cookie cutter outfits like American flags being screen printed onto a t-shirt. Why not go explore your wardrobe and have some fun with your outfit! Who knew you can be patriotic and stylish without breaking the bank?!
I pulled out three outfits that I think are perfect for the Fourth while still being on trend. All of the pieces shown below were already in my closet, which let me avoid the headache of going to the mall (hallelujah!) and spending money. I pulled together a casual/easy going, a semi-casual, and fancy-ish (emphasis on the –ish!) outfits to inspire you for this upcoming holiday 🙂
The other day I mentioned I was featured on Vera Bradley’s blog, Inside the Stitch. I was thrilled to create one post that was centered around party décor, and then they asked me to put together another post sharing what I would wear to a graduation party.
Say what!? Pictures of me??
You’ve probably noticed I tend to be more of a behind the camera kinda girl when it comes to the posts I share. But, I also love fashion and have wanted to break into it a little more this year. Up until this point I wasn’t sure how to really incorporate it in, but this is a lifestyle blog and fashion is obviously something we all have to make a decision on daily.
Thanks to this collaboration with Vera Bradley I’m stepping in front of the camera today {sharing something other than my hands, which can frequently be seen in DIY posts} for what I hope will be the first of many fashion-inspired posts to come! 🙂
